I'm trying to be a religious blogger. not blog on religion of course, but to keep at it. perhaps the problem with me is my very short attention span. i always feel very sian after doing a certain thing for some time. i think i'm autistic or what's that syndrome where the kids are hyperactive and cannot sit still. i think i suffer from that. that's why, i've only managed to stay at one particular job for 1 year plus?? Yeah, i'm a job-hopper, even tho i'm in the same company. was at AT for 12 mths, and i have just passed the 1 year 5 mth mark for CD. If i go to overseas, it will be 1 year and 8 mth at CD. I've even told the company that i'm only willing to be posted there, i'm only willing to stay one year. freakishly coincidental. my mind frames each assignment in one year terms. i'm a freak. period.

What kinda reasons can i think of to go? Hao-e is leaving in about 2 mths time. sigh. so i have plenty of reason to go overseas myself. maybe it'll help me boost my otherwise lacklustre resume and get a consultancy firm to buy off my bond?!?! maybe after a year of hardship there, we'll have enough to break my bond ourselves. maybe after a year, my dog wouldn't recognise me. maybe i'll be able to speak fluent russian at the end (and forget all my mandarin). maybe i'll love it so much i'll stay for another year?!? and break my one-year nonsense. maybe i'll miss the current state of things that i'll die to come back before the year's up? Maybe it is better to stay here with all my friends and family and not think that i can live with the cold over there. brr......

I don't know. i will pray over it. see what God says. I told him once of the limit i've set. and the limit has been breached. i suppose it's his way of telling me, "hey, you want an answer, i've already provided you. go now!"

Very torn, very worn. Very tired, very sian. Very upset and very sad all at the same time. Doesn't sound like the tone of someone who's supposed to be planning for a wedding isit?

Back To Reality

It's over! We're finally married (in the eyes of the Church!). It was really pretty fun last sat, thank God for the sunny weather (a bit hot lah, but at least it didn't rain till after), for the wonderful guests and my fantastic friends. hope it wasn't too uncomfortable under the sun for everyone.

Back Safe and Sound

This is my first post since we left Bermuda for Singapore more than 3 weeks ago. We are battling serious jet lag this time. it might be the age-factor (yikes!) or because we didn't rest properly on the flights (yes plural!) back cos we were busy trying to exhaust all the new movies on krisworld, or maybe a combination of both lah. but both of us have been trying very hard to keep awake at 3pm. yes, the sleep monster strikes at that hour! thank God we are going to remove time saving tonight, so we have 1 less hour to correct this weekend. talking about movies, twilight was amazingly easy on the eye! although i hesitate to call ourselves twilight converts given that i was highly skeptical at first. but the eye candy in the form of Rob Pattersin/Edward Cullen is really irresistible (did you know Rob Pattersin was Cedric in Harry Potter??) .... argh. i wanna get bitten by this vamp too lor! BITE ME! Hao-e even bought New Moon (the sequal) to read this weekend and i spent almost ...

IT JUST DOESN'T FEEL LIKE CHINESE NEW YEAR!

As I learn about everyone's plans to welcome the Golden Tiger Year, the more unhappy I become.  Although it was a conscious effort on our part to avoid being home for the Lunar New Year, I cannot help but feel left out during this all-important holiday. On this island, we have all but 1 so-called Chinese restaurant.  Every year, they would put up the red banner a few weeks before CNY. One red banner compared to the numerous ones back home.  How pathetic eh? There is no atmosphere whatsoever. With the "influx" of Chinese kids, 4 in total plus 1 soon-to-be-born, I made myself pack some red envelopes from home, so that the kids can experience a little of the festivities that I am so used to.   WHAT IS CHINESE NEW YEAR WITHOUT THE RED PACKETS? This year, we've upgraded our celebration to include mahjong!  yes, the mahjong set and table arrived last weekend.  hao-e couldn't stop himself from ripping the plastic cover off those ivory -coloured tiles and we ...
